So here is the issue. In my logs I get the same as everyone else, blocked ips, a fair amount but a lot. Also get the msg, MAC address xxxxxxxxxxxxx disconnected: Received Deauthourization. I have reset hard and soft. Powered down and hit reset button. Reset to factory defaults. I only have one hard wired device going into the 4500, and thats my desktop. I have had this router for almost two years with zero issues running 1.15. I have 2 iphones, PS3, Wii, Roku, and an occasional laptop (That has been off for weeks). About 4 days ago while watching netflix via PS3 the wireless went down on the router. About 5 minutes later it came back on. My iphones get disconnected and it asked me for the password for my network (same on the PS3), then when I put the password in, it says can not connect.
I have Comcast cable with a arris?? modem. I logged into that and checked its log, and it says it has been up for 20 days and there is nothing crazy in the log.
My desktop still connects to the internet when I lose wireless.
I have tried everything that Mr. Nutz has suggested to do. I have upgraded to 1.23n in hopes of fixing this. I have even asked my neighbors if any new/old wireless phones have been purchased or hooked up.
Have tried different frequency channels and 5ghz only as well. Disabled and enabled every setting I can see.
I have done nothing new nor added anything new. I get great speeds from newsgroups downloads through the LAN. So this router has been abused with massive D/Ls.
And it doesn't lose wireless under load. I woke up this morning and it was disconnected and would not reconnect unless I wait 30 minutes or do a power reboot.
SO.................... What you got?

Have you tried doing a factory reset the setting the WiFi to G mode only at 2.4Ghz? Test this mode without a password just to see if you can connect cleanly and do some browsing or streaming. Then go back in set WPA2 and AES or Auto for password and again, browse or stream something and see if you get a disconnect again. Let us know.

Yeah, I did the factory reset. Will try it with G only and no password and see what happens, when I get home this afternon.
Why would this start after a year of running smooth?
-
not sure...could be interference, possible HW fail but kinda doubt that. I've only seen this once and that was with FW v1.21. Wasn't a good build. I had been running v1.15 on my and never saw that.
I would reset and try one wireless device at a time. Make sure all other wireless devices are shut off. Start simple then add too.

Well I think I have good news. Did what you said and was down to just the iPhones on the wifi. Got the MAC address XXXXXXXXX Wireless disconnections:Received Deauthentication again. This time I knew the MAC address for my phone. SO, did a google search for Iphone and Dlink issues and came up with this: http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=9893.0 (http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=9893.0)
So far no disconnects. I am hoping this was the problem.

Good, hope it fixes it. Keep us posted.
-
Well it's been up and running all day and all night. I hope this helps others as well. I guess it was my iphones.

We have iPhones heres too. I put them on static IPs here.
